lookin at coilovers for my beast? :)
HARD :x
you need, Strut tops from Oscar, Front hubs from a donor car(RX7, Nissan etc) And suitable coilovers for that type of hub. Then you need to modify the control arms to suit the ball joints for the new hubs. Im using the vr4 coilovers with rx7 hubs so i also have to modify the mounting positions of the hubs and struts.
And thats just the front :glare:

^^^ yeah but he's not talking bout slip over height adjustable sleeves, he's talking about full proper external damper adjustable ones like u can buy for silvias etc, so u can tune the suspension for dorifto action!

i SEE YOU HAVE A NEW WATERPUMP SITTING THERE. YOU MIGHT TRY A EWP DAVIS CRAIG ON THE BOTTOM HOSE - SAVE A HEAP OF PROBS AND WORKS WHEN MOTOR TURNED OFF - GOOD FOR HEAD GASKETS ETC.

Way ahead of ya bud! the photo doesn't show that i have removed the impeller from the pump for that very reason, mainly because im going front coolant exit and no thermostat.
Good advice though thanks :beer
